Very harsh, very snide, very arch. I heartily endorse this mockery of Oracle.

I've always wondered why Oracle execs needed to travel in private jets all the time, now I know!

I just can't take oracle seriously knowing an oracle 11 enterprise db license costs $47,500 per CPU core.

There's not much to this article, just someone being snarky about Oracle. After a moment, I decided that was enough, and voted it up.

Most Intel processors fall in the .5 core factor. Interestingly if you license an Oracle core(Sun, Sparc) it is .25.
